I received a USB stick with some of Roy Barstow's DX files from Falmouth, MA.
Review of the 4 Elad format wav files is not complete yet. Below is an initial
"taste" from an hour or so of virtual tuning.

"average DX"
US and Canadian stations on channels such as 730, 740, and 760 that would have
Latin Americans during more interesting conditions. Review of file put on hold.

"ant. at 120 deg."
700 Argentina suspected
More of this file to go over later.
Routine Cubans, 750 Venezuela, 580 WKAQ, and other typical blasters are on most
files but not worth a lot of discussion.
Roy, I have the files in my PC now so I'll send the stick back Monday.
Menauhant Beach site is pretty good, very low electrical noise, but those NYC
stations are killer loud unfortunately. Chatham or Orleans, MA would give you
substantially less QRM from the Big Apple and metro.
